If he’s being honest, the notion of wearing purple is still difficult to stomach for Alex Molden. He’s trying to have an open mind, at least.
A Christmas present from his wife, Molden has a new black “W” hat that he just might wear out of the house one of these days. That he will soon be rooting on the Washington Huskies, once his biggest rival, hasn’t entirely settled in.
Elijah Molden, the second of Alex and Christin’s eight children, will sign a letter of intent with the Huskies on national signing day next week. A four-star cornerback, he’s one of the jewels of a UW recruiting class ranked among the top 20 nationally.
